How to Conduct a Food/Fund Drive
Second Harvest Community Food Bank relies on the generosity of the communities we serve to nourish our neighbors in need. Last year alone nealry 200,000 pounds of food was collected from food drives. Because we are the only food bank serving Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas, it is vital to maintain the independence and integrity of Second Harvest Community Food Bank.
Due to the frequency of requests for external promotions and to maintain cost efficiencies, the following guidelines have been put into place.
Second Harvest recommends individuals not go door to door to solicit food or funds.
